    Very nice! I made a walker tote for my Uncle Bob last year, starting with a pre-made tote you buy to embellish yourself, which I did with a fishing theme and found iron on embroidered letters I spelled out his name across the top with. I added some machine embroidery as well. He loves it, and in his retirement complex, he never looses his walker amongst the many there, and has had so many compliments on it! I think everyone that has a relative or special friend that depends on a walker should receive one customized for them. SUCH a useful and thoughtful gift to receive!!

    As a person who uses a walker, wow, what a gift. I use mine all the time and need the pockets for extras and, for me, a bag big enoigh to hold my oxygen. She is going to be tickled

    This is wonderful and pretty too! I have been thinking of making something similar for my dads walker. Thanks for sharing.
